New DashCam Uses Facial Recognition

New Dashcam uses Facial Recognition

When it comes to vehicle safety technology, dash cameras are nothing new. Drivers have been using them to record their daily commutes and prevent insurance fraud since the early 2000's when digital video camera technology became affordable enough for the general public to purchase. Shortly after, commercial fleets began to see the potential of dash cams and started to install them in their vehicles to protect themselves from lawsuits and prove the innocence of their drivers in court.

In recent years, dash camera manufacturers have begun to develop robust, powerful features that go far beyond merely recording the scene of an accident. Live streaming technology, 4G mobile internet, and the ability to mount multiple cameras on a single vehicle have greatly expanded the benefits of having a dash camera system in your fleet. Rather than just protecting themselves after the fact, fleets have recently enjoyed the ability to monitor their drivers and provide enhanced safety training and feedback in real time.

Integrated GPS and G-Force sensors in dash cams have also revolutionized fleet tracking, as fleet managers have access to an all-in-one solution that provides extremely detailed vehicle location information. As goes without saying, a GPS system in each vehicle can help reduce theft and provide customers with the whereabouts of their long-awaited online orders. One of the many overlooked benefits of GPS, however, is that it can reduce operating costs by helping managers monitor the speed and distance traveled by a fleet vehicle. G-force sensors, on the other hand, provide additional insights into driver behavior and identify sharp turns, unnecessary acceleration, and dangerously quick lane changes.

So what’s new for dash cameras and fleet safety technology? As it turns out, ADAS systems are being implemented into cameras to provide both fleet managers and drivers with an incredible set of tools. By using multiple video feeds of vehicle cameras as their eyes, sophisticated programs can alert drivers of vehicles in their blind spots, assist them when changing lanes, or even bring them to a screeching halt when obstacles pass in front of them.

The next generation of fleet dash cameras is going above and beyond by providing incredibly accurate methods of identifying drowsy and distracted driving as they occur. Safety Track’s new line of dash cams, for example, use both AI and facial recognition to determine whether or not a driver is yawning, closing their eyes, or talking on the phone in real time. It can even tell if they are smoking or drinking while behind the wheel! (To see how exactly this new tech works, check out the video on our page.)

The full benefits of this new technology have yet to become fully realized, but proponents of AI-equipped dash cameras claim that the more mundane aspects of fleet management like constantly watching live feeds of drivers can be reduced—and eventually eliminated. Even the most vigilant fleet manager or team of dispatchers can’t possibly watch every driver at once. However, AI and Facial Recognition provide fleet managers with an extra set of eyes that can alert them if a driver is participating in dangerous behaviors and catch the important details they might not see at first glance.

Is This the Next Step in Fleet Safety?

Live Streaming Fleet Camera with Cloud Storage.

Over the years we have reported of new innovations in the fleet safety vertical. From the beginning, with the addition of GPS tracking to a fleet gave the fleet manager a good sense of where his fleet was and how long they were there, plus the added feature on maintenance and alerts did give the fleet management the ability to increase the overall effectiveness of fleets, yet it lacks the essential video data needed to ensure the fleet was following company policies and procedures.

Were they texting or talking on the phone? Eating in the fleet vehicle? All these things can cause your fleet to incur a higher rate of insurance claims and decrease the productivity of the fleet.
Distracted Driving, being the number one cause of accidents in the US. to the most recent Live Streaming Video fleet cameras.
Then came along video footage for review of incidents when the vehicles were on the road. This provided a better fix for the problem but again didn't give you the data you needed to make sure your drivers weren't texting or distracted driving.

Then came along the true live streaming video fleet camera solution. This gave you the next level of safety, being able to ride along with your drivers in real-time, but you had to have someone be able to watch.
Now with cloud storage, you can replay the day events or the complete day history to see what is been going on. Replay GPS history and video data.
All stored for 3 days on the cloud base server.
Taking it to the next level. Don't be the last in line.

Safety Track's Adds Features to their Live Streaming Video DashCam

Safety Track just released the latest in video technology for fleet application.
since the release of the first live streaming video dashcam on the Verizon Network, Safety Track has been listening to what their customers have been asking for.

• Remote Playback:
• Having the ability to "Go Back" into the dashcam and see an event that took place remotely. A person calls into the office and says he saw your vehicle cutting someone off. he gives an approx. time. All you have to do is log in to your viewer, select that vehicle and playback the history. Since it is a continuous recording device, you will see if and when the incident took place.
• Email Alerts: 
• You set up the G-Sensor events. when the driver is on the road and he triggers an event, you will get an email of that event. You also will receive a short video clip delivered to your computer. It's your data, why would you want a company to review your driving data?

The time is now for you to take control of your fleet. 

Let me ask this question:
